Half a month later, Lu Xiaoxiao and Xie Xi successfully entered Suzhou.

Two ordinary-looking carriages entered the backyard of Luoyang Inn directly.

Xie Xi got off the carriage first and then helped Lu Xiaoxiao down. "Be careful. During the time we stay in Suzhou, we will live here first."

Luoyang Inn is located almost all over the Li Kingdom. From the beginning, it was used as a stronghold in each place to facilitate Xie Xi's people when doing business outside.

Now, they are looking for evidence in secret, and staying at Luoyang Inn can better conceal their identities.

"good."

Lu Xiaoxiao responded crisply.

[As long as His Highness is by my side, it doesn’t matter where I live! 】

[However, why does the name Luoyang Inn seem familiar? It seems like you heard it somewhere? 】

Xie Xi coughed lightly, interrupting Lu Xiaoxiao's thoughts: "Xiaoxiao, go to the room and rest for a while, okay?"

After running on the road for many days, Lu Xiaoxiao felt that her head was turning into paste and she could not remember anything for the time being.

Lu Xiaoxiao's whole body wilted.

Hearing His Highness's words at this time, Lu Xiaoxiao nodded quickly: "Okay, husband, but where is the room?"

"exist……"

Xie Xigang opened his mouth, and when he glanced out of the corner of his eye, he saw Ah Jiu, the shopkeeper of Luoyang Inn, rushing over.

Seeing Ah Jiu's lips moving slightly, as if the word "Master" was about to come out of his mouth, Xie Xi quickly winked at the guard Mu Qing beside him.

Mu Qing understood instantly.

Mu Qing quickly stopped Ah Jiu and pulled him to the other side: "Shopkeeper, open three first-class rooms."

Ah Jiu:? ? ?

Ah Jiu was originally the bodyguard of His Highness the Crown Prince. Because Ah Jiu was quick-thinking and talked about people and ghosts all day long like a chatterbox, His Highness sent him to Suzhou as a shopkeeper.

Ah Jiu knew Mu Qing.

But he didn't understand why Mu Qing didn't let him come forward and salute his master?

If he hadn't heard his master coming, he wouldn't have put down his work and hurried over.

Mu Qing forcefully dragged Ah Jiu to the door of the backyard and said expressionlessly: "Don't talk nonsense."

Ah Jiu glared at him unconvinced and said fiercely: "Xiao Muqing, you are so unreasonable! You dragged me here before I even had time to say a word!"

"What on earth do you want to do!?"

Mu Qing still said expressionlessly: "Master doesn't want to see you, so don't hang around in front of me. Also, don't call me master in front of other people."

"Okay, you can go back and ask your people to open three first-class rooms for us."

After saying this, Mu Qing turned around and left.

Ah Jiu was so angry that she wanted to push Mu Qing to the ground and beat him.

I don’t know why the master insists on keeping Mu Qing by his side. Mu Qing is obviously not as lovable as him!

Although Ah Jiu disliked Mu Qing, he had to obey his master's orders. Since his master didn't want to see him, he should avoid it.

Ah Jiu returned to the lobby of the inn and asked the waiter Ah Xi to go to the backyard to entertain the guests.

Axi immediately ran to the backyard.

The backyard of the inn.

Lu Xiaoxiao was still waiting for His Highness's answer: "Husband?"

[It seems that His Highness and Guard Mu Qing are a little strange, as if they are hiding something...]

【Is there anything you can’t let me know? 】

Xie Xi's eyes flashed and he responded in a low voice, "Xiaoxiao, I'll take you to the room."

Lu Xiaoxiao secretly yawned, tears almost came out: "Okay."

[Since His Highness is unwilling to say anything, then I will pretend that I don’t know anything. 】

【Who made me like His Highness~】

Xie Xi felt a little hot in her earlobes for no reason. He held Lu's small hand tightly and led her out of the backyard.

Chen Lu and Bai Zhi followed the two of them.

Seeing such an intimate scene between His Highness and their master, Chen Lu and Bai Zhi quickly looked at each other and laughed silently.

The relationship between the master and His Highness is really good.

As soon as they came out of the backyard, Lu Xiaoxiao and Xie Xi saw the waiter Ah Xi.

Ah Xi remembered his shopkeeper's instructions. As soon as he saw them, Ah Xi said: "Two guests, come with the young one."

"The three first-class rooms are all on the third floor. If you need anything, please just ask me to take care of it. I will definitely handle it properly."

Hearing this, Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but chuckle: "The waiter at Luoyang Inn is quite enthusiastic about his guests."

"That's that."

A Xi showed a bright smile on his face and said without humility: "It's all because of the good teaching from the shopkeeper."

Lu Xiaoxiao: "Then your shopkeeper is really good at teaching."

Ah Xi reached out and scratched the back of his head, and said in a naive tone: "In my opinion, the shopkeeper is the most powerful!"

Xie Xi added in his mind: Ah Jiu is the most talkative.

Xie Xi sent Ah Jiu here because he thought he was noisy.

Thinking about it now, his previous decision was correct.

It is indeed suitable for Ah Jiu to be the innkeeper.

Seeing that the waiter Ah Xi was so eloquent, Lu Xiaoxiao took the opportunity to ask him some things about Suzhou.

Ah Xi also answered them one by one.

It wasn't until the group arrived on the third floor that Lu Xiaoxiao didn't ask Axi anything else about Suzhou.

Ah Xi handed the keys to the three first-class rooms to Lu Xiaoxiao. Before going downstairs, Ah Xi asked again: "Do you need hot water, sir?"

"want."

Before Lu Xiaoxiao could answer, Xie Xi spoke first: "Four buckets of hot water, and two more bathtubs."

They were riding in a carriage along the way, and they were dusty and had not washed themselves in a long time.

Xie Xi took out a tael of silver and handed it to Ah Xi.

Ah Xi suddenly smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed to slits, and his voice was full of excitement: "Okay, sir, wait a moment, four buckets of hot water will be delivered soon!"

With that said, Ah Xi quickly went downstairs.

There are three superior rooms, one for Chen Lu and Bai Zhi, one for Lu Xiaoxiao and Xie Xi, and the last room is for guard Mu Qing and another coachman.

After opening the door, Lu Xiaoxiao suddenly remembered: "Husband, where has Guard Mu Qing gone? Why haven't you seen him just now?"

[Having just arrived in Suzhou, His Highness must have sent Guard Mu Qing out so quickly, right? 】

[My Highness can’t be so inconsiderate, can he? 】

Xie Xi: "..." It's true.

After entering Suzhou, Xie Xi sent Mu Qing to contact the hidden stakes left in Suzhou.

Xie Xi clenched his fist and coughed lightly, then said in a calm tone: "Mu Qing went out to do something."

[Well, I’ll just pretend I haven’t heard this. 】

Xie Xi curled his lips without leaving any trace.

Lu Xiaoxiao stopped worrying about this matter and strode in. Before His Highness came over, she sat down in front of the round table, picked up the teapot and poured herself a cup of tea.

Just as she was about to drink it, she saw His Highness sitting down next to her.

"Husband, please have tea."

Lu Xiaoxiao immediately handed the tea cup to Xie Xi and winked at him.

Xie Xi smiled slightly and said, "No need, just drink."

"OK."

Lu Xiaoxiao didn't refuse, lowered his head and took a sip.

Suddenly, she raised her head and looked in the direction of the bed.

The huge superior room only had one bed, which was not even soft...

Lu Xiaoxiao suddenly thought——

[During my stay in Suzhou, will I have to sleep with His Highness? 】
